This riveting sequel to Mega Man 2 adds the amazing ability to . . . slide. And hey, it's pretty useful. It makes for clutch moves that avoid enemy fire, especially considering Mega Man was still unable to duck.

Besides that, it's hard to even say what it did different from Mega Man 2. The level design continues to be pretty competent, but it loses a lot of good faith with the endgame stages. You're going to make me fight spiritual clones of the Mega Man 2 robot masters who all have new weaknesses, AND rematch the Mega Man 3 bosses? That shit was so boring and made the near-end of the game a drag to finish.
